Abstract: Congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV) is a type of foot deformities characterized with hindfoot varus, adducted metatarsus, wide arched of the foot (cavus), and equinus. Its incidence is 1.2% per 1000 births annually. Around 80% of cases occur as idiopathic type and the remaining 20% is associated with other anomaly conditions. Genetic component is considered to play a role in the occurrence of CTEV. However, up to this day, there is no exact underlying etiology that defines the exact pathogenesis of CTEV. The evolving etiology nowadays is still multifactorial. Management of CTEV varies from non-surgical treatment to surgical treatment. A number of scoring and grading using qualitative and quantitative measurement are being used nowadays to assess the severity of CTEV because this deformity needs long-term follow-up due to its tendency to relapse.Keywords: congenital talipes equinovarus, clubfoot Abstrak: Congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV), dikenal juga dengan true clubfoot, merupakan deformitas pada kaki yang ditandai oleh adanya bentuk varus kaki belakang, adduksi metatarsus, dan adanya bentuk lengkungan kaki yang lebar (cavus) serta equinus. CTEV merupakan salah satu dari deformitas kaki pada saat lahir dengan insidensi 1,2% per 1000 kelahiran hidup per tahunnya. Pada 80% kasus terjadi secara idiopatik dan 20% dikaitkan dengan kondisi-kondisi lain. Komponen genetik diduga berperan pada CTEV, namun, sampai saat ini, belum ada etiologi pasti yang menjelaskan patogenesis CTEV. Etiologi yang berkembang sampai saat ini bersifat multifaktorial. Tatalaksana pasien CTEV bervariasi mulai dari non-operatif maupun operatif. Sejumlah pengukuran kualitatif maupun kuantitatif telah dikembangkan untuk menilai keparahan CTEV berhubung kondisi deformitas ini membutuhkan follow-up jangka panjang karena mempunyai kecenderungan untuk relaps.Kata kunci: congenital talipes equinovarus, clubfoot

Ligoniai ir metodai 1987–2007 metais Vilniaus širdies ligų klinikoje buvo atlikta 101 BPV, ligonių amžius nuo 1 paros iki – 39 metų. BPV atlikta esant spaudimo per PA vožtuvą skirtumui > 30 mm Hg. Ligoniai prieš BPV suskirstyti į dvi grupes pagal tai, ar pradinis spaudimo per PA vožtuvą skirtumas <50 mm Hg (1 gruoė), ar > 50 mm Hg (2 grupė). Analizuotas duomenų kitimas tiesiogiai po BPV, tarpiniu laikotarpiu (iki dvejų metų po BVP), vėlyvuoju laikotarpiu (praėjus daugiau kaip dvejiems metams). Ligoniai po BPV buvo suskirstyti į dvi grupes: turintys liekamąjį spaudimo skirtumą iki 36 mm Hg ir daugiau kaip 36 mm Hg. Rezultatai BPV atlikta 18 pacientų, kurių spaudimo per PA vožtuvą skirtumas < 50 mm Hg. Iškart po BVP spaudimo skirtumas per PA vožtuvą sumažėjo nuo 39,5 ± 5 iki 15,83 ± 8,37 mm Hg, tarpiniu laikotarpiu – iki 20 ± 6 mm Hg, vėlyvuoju – iki 21,5 ± 5 mm Hg. BPV atliktos 83 pacientams, kurių spaudimo per PA vožtuvą skirtumas > 50 mm Hg. Tiesiogiai po BVP vidutinis spaudimo skirtumas sumažėjo nuo 81,31 ± 21,28 iki 31,32 ± 13,82 mm Hg, tarpiniu laikotarpiu – iki 27,56 ± 12,71 mm Hg, vėlyvuoju – iki 19,89 ± 10,12 mm Hg. Esant liekamajam spaudimo skirtumui po BPV < 36 mm Hg (58 ligoniai), tarpiniu lakotarpiu vidutinis spaudimo skirtumas 23,66 ± 9,29 mm Hg, vėlyvuoju – 16,85 ± 7,98 mm Hg. Esant liekamajam spaudimo skirtumui po BPV > 36 mm Hg (21 ligonis), tarpiniu laikotarpiu vidutinis spaudimo skirtumas 51,99 ± 20,61 mm Hg, vėlyvuoju – 35,7 ± 16 mm Hg. Vėlyvuoju laikotarpiu spaudimo skirtumas mažėja, bet didėja PA nesandarumas. Tuoj po BPV nesandarumas nustatytas 7 %, tarpiniu laikotarpiu – 53 %, vėlyvuoju – 81,7 % ligonių. Išvados BPV yra gerai toleruojamas ir veiksmingas nechirurginis gydymo būdas. Daugumai ligonių išryškėja vėlyvasis nedidelis plaučių arterijos nesandarumas, kurį retai prireikia gydyti chirurginiu būdu. Mūsų studija rodo, kad tinkama ligonių atranka leidžia pasiekti gerų tiesioginių, tarpinius ir vėlyvųjų rezultatų.

Balloon pulmonary artery valvuloplasty – immediate, mid-term and long-term follow-up results: 20-year experience Sigitas Čibiras, Eugenijus KosinskasVilnius University Clinic of Heart and Vascular Medicine, Vilnius University Hospital Santariškių Klinikos, Santariškių str. 2, LT-08661 Vilnius, LithuaniaE-mail: [email protected] Background To analyze immediate, mid-term and long-term follow-up results after percutaneous balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty (BPV) of congenital pulmonary artery (PA) stenosis for a 20-year period. Patients and methods During 1987–2007, in the Vilnius Clinic of Heart Diseases 101 BPV were performed, the patients’ age range being 1 day – 39 years. BPV was performed with the primary PA valvular pressure gradient > 30 mm Hg. Patients before BPV had been divided into two groups: (1) with primary PA pressure gradient < 50 mm Hg; (2) with primary PA pressure gradient > 50 mm Hg. Data were analyzed immediately after BPV, in a mid-term (2 years) and a long-term (more than 2 years) follow-up. The same patients after BPV were divided into two groups: with residual pressure gradient < 36 mmHg and > 36 mmHg. Results Eighteen BPV were performed with the primary PA pressure gradient < 50 mm Hg: the immediate mean pressure gradient decreased from 39.5  ±   5 to 15.83 ± 8.37 mm Hg, in the mid-term period to 20 ± 6 mm Hg, and in the long-term to 21.5 ± 5 mm Hg. Eighty-three BPV were performed with the primary PA pressure gradient > 50 mm Hg; the immediate mean pressure gradient decreased from 81.31 ± 21.28 mm Hg to 31.32 ± 13.82 mm Hg, in the mid-term period to 20 ± 6 mm Hg and in the long-term period to mm Hg. With the residual pressure gradient after BPV < 36 mm Hg (58 patients), in the mid-term period the pressure gradient decreased to 23.66 ± 9.29 mm Hg and in the long-term period to 16.85 ± 7.98 mm Hg. With the residual pressure gradient after BPV > 36 mm Hg (21 patients), in the mid-term period the pressure gradient decreased to 51.99 ± 20.61 mm Hg and in the long-term period to 35.7 ± 16 mm Hg. In the long-term follow-up, the pressure gradient decreased, but PA regurgitation (PAR) was progressive. Immediately after BPV, PAR was seen in 7%, in mid-term follow-up in 53 %, and in long-term follow-up in 81.7 % patients. Conclusions BPV is a well tolerated and effective non-surgical treatment method. Late trivial PAR develops in the majority of cases, but rarely requires surgical treatment. Our study has demonstrated that the appropriate patient selection enables achieving good immediate, mid-term and long-term follow-up results.

Abstract Background: Ebstein’s anomaly is a malformation of the tricuspid valve and myopathy of the right ventricle. Surgery is now the main treatment for the defect. To summarize our surgical results and experience based on patients with Ebstein’s anomaly who were under 7 years of age and treated with different surgical treatments.Materials and Methods: From January 2010 to December 2019, 80 patients under 7 years old who were diagnosed of Ebstein’s anomaly and underwent different surgical treatments were consecutively enrolled and followed up in detail. Results: The median age of the 80 patients at the time of surgery was 3.63 years. Sixty-four (80.00%) patients underwent biventricular repair while 13 (16.25%) underwent 1.5-ventricle repair. With the median follow-up 27.50 months, the long-term survival of the total cohort, 1.5-ventricular repair and biventricular repair was 82.35%, 91.67% and 100%, respectively. The long-term freedom from reoperation rate was 97.50%, 92.31% and 98.44%, respectively. Mild, moderate and severe TR before surgery occurred in 6 (7.50%), 18 (22.50%) and 56 (70.00%), respectively. The early outcomes of 78 patients were 65 (83.33%), 11 (14.11%) and 2 (2.56%); the mid-term outcomes of 72 patients were 49 (68.06%), 19 (26.38%) and 4 (5.56%). Both early and long-term valve regurgitation were significantly decreased (p< 0.001) compared with preoperative condition. No more severe regurgitation occurred (p=0.404), though some early mild regurgitation became acceptable moderate regurgitation during long-term follow-up (p=0.036). Compared with Carpentier procedure, cone procedure had better long-term effect, while the effect of whole-valve technique needed more operation and long-term follow-up.Conclusion: The reoperation rate and mid-term mortality of surgical treatment for Ebstein’s anomaly were both low, tricuspid regurgitation was significantly improved during mid-term follow up. Cone procedure had the best mid-term effect among anatomic repair.
